Open to artists worldwide.
Art of Pride live and in person events are generally open to nude and erotic art. However, because we are using public platforms – Facebook, Instagram and YouTube – those companies have standards and that forbid nudes (particularly penises) and erotic art. Violating those standards could lead to Art of Pride and Pride being banned from those platforms. This could be a focus of a future show.
This is a joint activity of San Diego Art of Pride and San Diego Pride. We thank Pride for their continued support of cultural events and our community.
